There must be at least one WH photographer that really doesn't like the O's. That is the one that takes the most unflattering photos of them. I don't remember such mean looking photos of "W" and Laura Bush.
I’m a “girl” too. I like to say that because it makes me feel younger. I like the full on hug, and the side hug at times. I rarely would lay a hand on a shoulder though. Maybe men to that more, like the slap on the back thing for a job well done?
Yes I’ve seen him use this move many times before.
He studied Alinsky as we all know.
I remember that. Tsk, tsk.
His hold on authority is so tenuous.
Good lord...hubby is twice my size and I hope I never get a “job well done” slap on the back.
He’d swat me across the room!....LOL
Usually I get a bear hug or a pat on the head.
[yeah, the “pat” is annoying but he means well. woof!]
;D
“How much trouble could one get in with a simple shrug of the shoulder to get that nasty hand off?”
Probably not as much as an ear-piercing scream of revulsion accompanied by a sharp flinging-oneself-away-from-the-contaminant movement.
:)
I don’t think W and Laura Bush ever had such mean looking expressions on their faces for any photographer to capture.
I have wondered about some of the ‘photos where Obama is glaring or lowering his brow with a vacant hostile look in his eyes. Even if a photographer is out there, photographing the rage in his face for posterity, the WH controls the message and the media so much wouldn’t they would have pulled those pics if they saw them as normal people see them? Oh...I think I just answered my own question.... ;)
And therein lies the problem
Here is a nice farewell photo essay of President Bush with comments by two of Time Magazine photographers.
TIME photographers Brooks Kraft and Christopher Morris reflect on the eight years they have spent covering George W. Bush

Bump that, Conservative.
I don't like it when anyone does that to me, and my reflex is to look at their hand, then look at them as I slightly pull away...before I catch myself. You can just feel in the photo that that's the soldier's reaction. Just when I think that I can't hate the Usurper more than I do....
I hope Commie In Chief felt the good soldier's flinch. Alien Alinsky bastard.
“The only thing I can think of is “Did I SAY you could put your hand on me?”
-
Most of these “caption” threads are funny as can be, but a bit over the top.
Thing is - that looks like EXACTLY what he’s thinking.
I prefer** touch me with that hand again and you'll pull back a bloody stump**...
You are spot on Noob1999
Awesome link. Say what you will about what he chose to do, the Presidency died a little when he left office.
I thought so.
